My best personal consequence today, albeit not all that pandemic related, is that I've found it ultra-easy to make the decision
NOT to go for a new and
much better paid-CS job!
The once threatened with, now
not privatised
Land Registry ( a
great employer here, from all I've heard from pals in the LR) was offering
35 new jobs -- some in Durham, most in Swansea ....
thirty-five!!!!!
If I worked there, I could walk (or cycle!) to work! (the roles were not wfh, apparantly, beyond the training stage anyway
)
And I could have been picking up lunch-food from Morrisons on the way
-- their salads are great!
Big Butts though
: these jobs involved :
1. Call centre work. I could answer phones for cash though, possibly .....
Butt then .......
2. Ten thousand times as important : Minimum thirty hours (four days) per week,
and!!!! the
only days off you would be able to select with that, would be either Tuesdays or Thursdays**
**Fuck that
festival-hostile shit, man (many more
....
x a million at least, because
no extra money
at all ever is worth that. Not just ever, but never tooll!!).
(
First-World "problems" etc.
,
BUTT!!!!! )
(Decision not yo be arsed was easy, as ever in my life ....
...gets drunk instead of updating CV!
)
